Timetable for Boiling Vegetables.
Iotatoee, half an hour, unless small,
when rather less.
Peas and asparagus, twenty to twenty
five minutes.
Cabbage and cauliAower, twenty-five
minutes to half an hour.
Green corn, twenty to twenty five min
utes.
Lima beans, if very young, half an
hour; old, forty to forty-five minutes.
String beans, if slit or sliced slantwise
and thin, twenty-five minutes; if only
snapped across, forty minutes.
Carrots and turnips, forty-five minutes
when young, one hour in winter.
Beets, one hour in summer, one and q
half, or even two hours, il large, in win
ter.
Onions, medium size, one hour.
Rule.-All vegetables to go into fast
boiling water to be quickly brought to
the boiling point again, not left TO steep
in the hot water before boiling, which
toughens them and destroys color and
flavor.
The timetable must always be regu-
lated by the hour at which the meat will
be done. If the meat should have to
wait five minutes for the vegetables, there
will be loss of punctuality, but the din
ner will not be damaged, but il the vege-
tables are done, and wait for the meat,
your dinner will certainly be much worse,
yet SO general is the custom OF over-boil.
ing vegetables or putting them to cook
in haphazard way, somewhere about
the time, that very many people would
not recognize the damage; they would
very quickly see the superiority of vege-
tables just cooked the right time, but
would attribute it to some superiority in
the article itself, that they were fresher,
and finer, not knowing that the finest and
freshest, improperly cooked, are little
better than the poor ones.-Co Catherine

SWAY OF THE DANES.

According to the latest estimates .
says the st. James Gazette, "the land on
the surface of the globe has an area OF
about 100000 square miles. and sup
ports population of 1,400,OO0,0O0 souls.
1t is startling to reflect that there is q rea-
sonsble probability that, before many
years shall have elapsed, nearly one-third
of the worlds superfices, and consid-
erably more than one-quarter of the
worlds population, will be ruled by
the direct descendants of the royal
couple who are now entertaining family
party at Copenhagen. King Christian of
Denmark is at present sovereign of
about 10000 square miles of territory,
and more than 2.0OO,0 900 people; his eldest
daughters mother-in- law, Queen Victo-
ria, has an empire of nearly 8,500,000
square miles, with about 365,000,000 in
hsbitsnts; his son-in law, the Gar, is lord
of some 100000 square miles of terri
tory, and about 108.000,000 people; and
his son, the King of the Hellenes, rules
dominions extending to about $4,000
square miles, with 100000 inhabitants
1t is we'll within the bounds of POSSIBLE
ity that in the future, while King Albert
Victor reigns over Great Britain, Nicho-
las will be Czar OF Russia, Frederick will
be King of Denmark, and Constantine
will be KING Of the Hellenes; for princes
bearing these names, and all grandchild-
rem OF King Christian TX, will some day,
in the ordinary course Of events, succeed
directly or indirectly to the sovereigns
who now occupy the thrones of the four
monarchies in question"

Mrs. Frank seacoy, a humble VIC

Mrs. Frank Seacoy, a humble wo-
man in very Indifferent circumstances,
living in Nebraska village, had her well
cleaned out one day last month, and her
chickens busted themselves amid the
gravel and dirt that was heaped not far
from it, and scratched away after their
kind. A few days later Mrs. Seacoy kill
ed one of her flock for supper, and in its
crop was a nugget of very good gold, as
big as lima bean. The sstonished wo-
man at once had the land examined by
an expert; and the result was satisfactory
enough to authorize her to have a gold
claim duly laid out and cherish the Wis
ion in her breast Of cashmere shawls and
diamonds for the rest of her life.

Every line was made by you,
Sternly truel
And the futurel Child forlorn,

Child of tears, a ghost in storm;

Breaks uncertain on it's sky,
While the skurrying clouds go by,
Listening to its plaintive cry

LINcoLN,s GOOD ADVICE.

There is in existence a letter signed
plainly by the martyr president, which
reads, in paragraphs, as follows:
Do not worry.
Eat three square meals day.
Say your prayers.
Think of your wife
Be courteous to your creditors.
Keep your digestion good.
Steer clear of biliousness.
Exercise.
Go slow and easy.
May be there are other things that
your special case requires to make You
happy, but, my friend, these, 1 reckon,
will give you good lift.

On next Wednesday evening the peo-
pie of this city will have the first chance
they have had. this season TO listen to an
opera company company, too, Of such
acknowledged excellence as towns of the
size of Cheyenne seldom have an oppor-
t"nity Of listening to. In operate circles
Cheyenne has a well established reputa-
ton for the generosity and enthusiasm
with which high opera is received here.
Gerster and Nevada found their short
season here both pleasant and profitable.
Campanini's company, which is a most
remarkable one, should prove no excep-
ton to the rule. Besides Campanini
himself, there is Scalchi, who is perhaps
without a peer among the contralto singers
of the world, ReDetto. whose fame is
heralded by the leading critics of the
country, Torricelli, Baliini, Nannetti,
Corsini and Gore, an array of talent which
assures an artistic triumph.
THE LEADER never INDUCES in editorial
puffery of theatrical attractions. In the
case OF the Campanini company it believes
it is a duty which Cheyenne yves to itself
to be liberal IN its patronage.

they have found by experience that it really

DOWN WITH THE FENCES.
New Movement That Is Greatly Improving
the Beauty of North-Side Streets.

The predatory cow in Indianapolis is terror
of the past For many years no inconsideraole
part of the expenses attending the building of a
house was comprised in the cost of fence.
which needed to be strong and high to keep out
the bovine nomad. Gates were constructed with
locks and latches of most curious combinations,
but few of which the quadrupedai prowler failed
to pick, unlock destroy. An ordinance which
nobody believed could be enforced was passed,
and one two brave men took down their
fences, allowing their beautiful grassy lawns to
run down to the street 1t was long time be-
fore they had any followers, and it began to look
as If the reformers were to be left alone. All at
once about week ago. the removal OF front
fences. for some unexplained reason, became
epidemic, and now North Meridian street
there are long lines of unfenced lawns, which
meet the approval OF every passer-by, and are
far more beautiful than if numbered with the
most expensive and artistic fence earth
Residents along Pennsylvania. Delaware, and a
few on Alabama street following the good
example set them, and it is thought, from the
present rate of destruction. that two weeks hence
there will scarce remain fence in front OF any
of the handsome residence properties on these
streets In other parts of the city fences are be-
ing removed giving additional beauty TO the
grounds, and also giving assurance that 1t will
never again be safe for the COW to run al large.
